Great to see the original set getting a run out- reminds you of what wonderful talent was available straight from the off!

Great to see the original set getting a run out- reminds you of what wonderful talent was available straight from the off! Mornin' joebreakdown! I wholeheartedly agree - that first black and white set was and still is - the shit. When I started Frankensteining this idea together I made sure the first six cards were strictly going to be that set only. And I wanted whomever came out on top ratings wise, would be in the inaugural title bouts. They deserve first crack (the voices told me lol). The Exotic One and Miss Linda will be joining us on Card 7 during the tag bout. Aside from Street - who else are you're a Legends faves? How about Kat? Much thanks my friend for being in the seats! |

Destroyer gets a big win as Johnny V seems to be winning everywhere else.

Destroyer gets a big win as Johnny V seems to be winning everywhere else. Afternoon brother TTX! I hear ya - and the fact that Destroyer's win was via submission to boot - it was a real homerun. Yeah Johnny V really had no chance at all in this one. Historically for me The Valiants can't even buy a win if they are in singles competition. But you never know right? On any given night. I've gotta believe they're gonna be a force in the tag ranks. I think I know the answer to this but I've gotta ask - as a rule - the indy wrestlers (male & female) aren't stated in relationship to the Legends line right? They're stated either in comparison of their own individual lines or perhaps under the "umbrella of indy?" Much thanks my friend as always! |

Depends.....some ROH guys are probably a bit strong for ROH but Chikara and the others, we mostly statted lower so they'd fit in as lower level on the Legends side as well.

Gotcha - so with ROH it's probably a card by card case. That makes sense. So say "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin, maybe Danielson, & Tyler Black might be too much. Thank you for thinking out loud with me bro. I know we have some rahl ratings available for a lot of cards but for the ones I'm thinking might be too strong I'll compile the rahls meself & see. As a gauge I know Lou Thesz's b&w card rahl is 55/57 or 8 (not 100% sure of his tag number). But if I have some independents come in as fill in wrestlers during injuries and suspensions I'll go by the rahl numbers. A thousand thank you's my friend! |

No problem. Rahl is not an exact science (Cage should not be part of Rahl, multiple finishers are probably underrated and it doesn't do choice stuff) but it's a general good idea.

Just found your new fed. Always great to see the original 24 in action. Looking forward to seeing Buddy Rogers dominate(unless it's Frank Gotch, Harley Race, or Nick Bockwinkel--Wow, that was a loaded foursome we got right out of the gate, wasn't it). I can't wait to see what expansion wrestlers the Commissioner signs. Who is the Commish? Could it be "Broadway" Joe Namath? Keep those dice dizzy, brother!

I agree we got one hell of a first set. And I played that set exclusively for many years - until I realized they had a Lou Thesz card. Then and there my Filsinger addiction began lol. Broadway Joe was an excellent guess. But he Farrah and Raquel split after the last Gridiron season and got married. I'm sure they'll make a very happy throuple. It's funny you mentioned who the commish is - I've started a companion folder for this fed in the LOW Title Histories Folder. There's a section for AIWF Staff Bios. The very last entry is the commishes bio. Now if we can only find out who the owners are. In due time I guess. Always awesome when you're in the seats brother. Thank you for the support! |
